Property Description

This timeless old world estate is beautifully situated under the bluffs of Mount Bonnell and on the banks of an enchanting Lake Austin Canal, located just a few miles from downtown Austin.  Designed by nationally-renowned architect Bill Harrison of Harrison Design Associates, this five star rated green-built home features approximately 8,000 square feet, five bedrooms, 5 baths and 2 half baths, and a combination media, billiards and game room with a 100 inch video projection screen and full wet bar.  The gourmet chef’s kitchen boasts a 60-inch Wolf range, dual 36-inch built-in refrigerator/freezer, and a custom mesquite center island with copper veggie sink.  All woodwork, from the cabinetry and trim to the doors and hardwood floors, is finely crafted from Alder, Mahogany and Maple.  When you venture to the outdoor living space, you will find yourself breathless as your eye catches the oversized stone patio, stately cedar timbers, and soothing water features along with a Wolf barbeque grill, full bath, pool and spa.  The property also features a detached and extremely private one bedroom, one bath casita with views of the water and nearby bridge invoking the beauty of Venice, Italy.  Unparalleled in its elegance and quality, this estate is destined to become a new classic.
